Use what you want. If you like using swords only, then use swords only :P

Also, you should probably move this thread to this section.

That's a really unhealthy amount of monosodium glutamate. Try to cut down there buddy.

Sloth it's a perfectly legit tactic to just use swords and mow people down that way. Some crazy people just don't like using guns. You can win games as pure sword player or pure guns or pure bombs, it just depends on how much you practice with that style of play.

Having said that there are good reasons why hybrid loadouts are the most popular among the top LD players; being without a gun leaves you vulnerable to those who do have one, it makes bombers harder to deal with and recons harder to pin down. You can't snipe people from below and take out low health people when they're too far to reach by sword. when your boost runs out guns can shield you till you recover, and you can use guns for area denial.

ps, you should turn off that weapon scroll visual is you're gonna use swords only. I can't play with that thing on, it's too annoying. That and the low health flashy thing.
